Old-Fashioned Lemon Pudding

I have more good news to share with you. The folks atTillamook Cheese are featuring our Creamy Broccoli and Cheddar Soup on their site - they're calling it calling it Soup of the Gods. We also received a nod for our Pumpkin Butter in the on-line Health and Fitness section of Glamour magazine.

From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...Today's recipe is for an old-fashioned pudding that lemon-lovers will really enjoy. I want to emphasize that this is a pudding, not a curd. A curd contains no cornstarch and the only liquid used to make it is the juice of lemons. Lemon fillings and puddings, however, are made with water or milk and use cornstarch as a thickener. Like most old recipes, this one is simple and quite straight forward. It is tart. If you have small children you might want to use less zest than the recipe calls for. While I hate to suggest that, I think it's better than adding additional sugar. Make sure you remove only the yellow colored portion of rind. The white pith will make the pudding bitter. I've found that two large lemons will give the juice and zest I need to make this. This is a wonderful, inexpensive family dessert.

Mary, you have made my day!!! I love lemon pudding... and use it as a layer in my favorite birthday cake of all times! Since we've moved away from processed foods, I have not yet succeeded in a yummy lemon pudding recipe -- this looks like it will do the trick!! THANK YOU!

Congrats on being picked up on the two sites, I checked both of them out! Your photo on the Glamour site looks great!The lemon pudding looks so lucious and velvety...I enjoy something a little more tart every once on awhile, and I love anything lemon!!

Mary, You have outdone yourself this time. Lemon anything is a favorite..Ican see the as tarts, between cake layers..a pie..just about anything. Congratulations on being featured on both areas. It couldn't happen to a sweeter person. You are always so gracious to share all your wonderful recipes with us...you deserve awards.

Mary, you are one of the most dedicated bloggers ever! I can always count on you to have something new and fresh up everyday. Your lemon pudding looks delish and easy enough that even I could do it.:o)

Hello Mary, thank you so much for your visit and your sweet comments about my sisters. Yes, we are very lucky to be so close.

I am sorry I have missed some of your posts. We have been soooo busy with company. My cousin left on Sunday and my sister-in-law arrived on Wednesday. Both will have stayed 10 days each, before the next week is gone. Love the company and you know there is lots of cooking going on here. Sadly my computer time is limited.

Love the lemon pudding recipe. I have made cornstarch pudding for years. Great stuff. I have never made lemon pudding. It sounds and looks great.

Congratulations on the recognition of your Creamy Broccoli and Cheddar Soup. Also your Pumpkin Butter being featured in Glamour Magazine. Post it Mary,I know you are thrilled. I would love to see it in print.

Have a wonderful week. I forgot to mention I made an acorn squash recipe for our company and am posting it tomorrow. different and good.

I just followed this recipe, and it is amazing!!! It's cooling now, but I took a few bites, and it is delicious! Thank you for posting....Lemon pudding reminds me of a children's book I read when I was young. :-)

Discovered this years ago and it is incredible. Wonderful lemon flavour and not sticky sweet and a super way to use up your milk. Instead of the double boiler I'm going to attempt it in my Vitamix on the soup setting next time. That's how I make my lemon curd and no constant stirring or having to strain it, fantastic!

I was going to make lemon curd and I stumbled upon your recipe and it intrigued me. Super easy to make ! I used three Meyer lemons in my pudding. This will be my go to lemon pudding recipe from now on.
